3rd POV:

Toga called Kurogiri for a warp gate as Izuku started to tear up behind Dabi. He hated crying, but he couldn't help it. His life was hell no matter where he was.

A gate opened up in front of the three, and they walked through. Izuku still refused to let go of Dabi's hand until they were back in Dabi's room.

He immediately rushed to the bed and wrapped himself up in the blanket. He fell to the side and allowed some tears to spill out.

Dabi sat on the bed next to Izuku. "You can talk about it. It's alright." He reassured.

"Hey, I know what will make you feel better. You can go anywhere in town you want." Toga consoled. Both of them were running out of ideas, so that's the best thing they got right now.

"Where do you wanna go? Museum, water park, ice cream shop, the mall-"

"My old room." He said quietly.

"Like the one you had before you came here?" Dabi asked.

"Mhm. Unless we can't."

"Of course you can. When's a good time to go?" Toga assured.

"We could go now. Mom's at work." He sounded hesitant.

"Let's go now then." Toga beamed. She called Kurogiri again, and a loud sigh followed her question.

The familiar portal opened in Dabi's room. Izuku sprung out of the bed. He was about to go through before he stopped himself.

"By the way. Don't judge me for my room. I never changed it. It's kinda embarrassing." He said as he dragged the other two with him.

"Holy shit." Dabi said, his mouth open.

On every surface of Izuku's room was something All Might related. The desk had All Might pens in a red and yellow container next to an All Might notepad. Every shelf had several figurines and merchandise of the hero. The walls were plastered with posters, banners, and flags. The bed had All Might colored sheets and comforters. The closet was full of T-shirts and hoodies with All Might on it.

The only things that weren't branded were his door and shelf of Hero Notebooks 1-12.

"Damn kid. You were a diehard. How much did all this shit cost?"

"I'm not sure. Mom always felt bad that I didn't have a quirk, so she spoiled me. If I had to guess, maybe around $26,000?"

Toga choked on air and started coughing. "Jesus Christ." She coughed out.

"Why'd you leave again?" Dabi asked mesmerized.

"We've gone over this." Izuku growled.

"I would've never left if my mom loved me this much." Toga said in awe. "What about your dad?" She asked.

"I -we don't talk about him." He crossed his arms and looked away.

"I can relate to that all too well." Dabi sighed.

"My dad probably wasn't nearly as bad as yours." Izuku shrugged.

"How do you know about my dad?" Dabi asked.

"You guys underestimate how perceptive I am. Didn't help when you told me your real first name. I know everything about you two." Izuku smirked proudly.

"What's Dabi about then? I've always wondered why he's so moody." Toga bounced up to Izuku.

Izuku ran around her and hid behind Dabi.

"C'mon, tell me!" She cheered.

"If you know everything, then enlighten me." Dabi looked over his shoulder at the significantly shorter boy.
